In this episode of The Ryan Holtz Show Podcast I sit down with online store, fashion blogger and Instagram engagement queen, Mickaa from Florida! Mickaa became an entrepreneur about 3 years ago, blogger 2 years, and brand ambassador about a year ago. Fashion is her passion, and she is loving the journey so far.

I wanted to have Mickaa as a guest as her Instagram is on fire, not because of how many followers she has, but the engagement she gets. When she posts, thousands of people respond to her! With Instagram becoming an absolute social media powerhouse and not just for fashion peeps, but also businesses trying to connect with their customers, having a great presence is key.

Below is a summary of some of the show notes and key points we chatted about.

Shownotes & Instagram Tips:

1. Going on everyday on Instagram and liking and engaging with people’s pictures
2. How Mickaa’s father gave her a piece of advice that basically said: “when you go into entrepreneurship, you will be alone”
3. Trying to post decent quality pictures on a consistent basis
4. Do not be discouraged if your business takes time to generate money and sales especially when it comes to ecommerce businesses
5. The power of having a morning ritual and planning each day to maximize time
6. Being patient and working hard to ensure your business has the best chance especially when starting out

I have attended three of Ryan’s automotive marketing courses and I hope to have the opportunity to go to even more!

Mattie ElliottMarketing & Promotions ManagerLethbridge Dodge

Here is a man who never ceases to amaze me. The heart and enthusiasm he puts into everything he does is well over the top and I think that is why he shines. The more I interact with him the more highly I recommend him as a social media expert, a marketing genius and a connector of people. He has the right personality to click with just about anyone and is not afraid to put himself out there for anybody.
If you can work with him I say do so, you will be a better person or business for it.

Don NaultSales ManagerPremier Garage Condos

Ryan is the kind of guy you can count on to get things done. And he’s not content with doing the same old, same old – he comes up with innovative tactics to meet his dealership’s goals. His skill set is wide, with particular strengths in traditional marketing and social media, and the best thing about Ryan in my opinion is that he is always pushing himself to learn more about his craft. He never stops improving, which inspires others (including myself) to do the same, and I find that truly admir…

As a business partner, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Ryan in his role of Marketing Manager at Zender Ford. A true marketing professional, Ryan keeps his finger on the pulse of current technology and has used this experience to develop a well-rounded and customer focused marketing strategy at Zender Ford. He values the quality of the relationship with the end customer above all else, and it shows in his attention to detail and to the quality of every project delivery he’s engaged in.

Ryan was able to grab the audience with a strong opening. His perfect pronunciation, articulation, body language, charm and energy filled the room. He connected with the audience and presented listeners with valuable information. Ryan’s secret is, he is passionate about everything he does. He is a phenomenal public speaker

I’ve learned more about social media in 5 minutes with Ryan than I have in the last few years listening to other so called experts.
